"Balotelli must grow up" - Roberto Mancini

Mancini who left Galatasaray at the end of last season has his eyes on taking over national side . Roberto Mancini is really hoping to take over as Italy head coach after Prandelli exit from the position. Mancini told Corriere dello sport "Italy would be a honour for me, no one called me but I would be proud."

"The Italian Football association need serious and competent men. The national team were too old? The age does not matter. I love Mario Balotelli, but he must grow up. With Marco Verratti and Ciro Immobile the team can be reconstructed. "

Well the statement his not surprising as most of us are quite famous with Balotelli antics and Mancini and Balotellli often engage in heated disputes over the striker's disciplinary issues.
